An agent meta-harness for Claude Code and Codex.

Get started with Ruflo

Start in Claude Code with core tools, the visual console and runtime mods. Requires Claude Code 2.1.287 or later. Run inside Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add ruvnet/ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-core@ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-console@ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-mods@ruflo
/reload-plugins
/ruflo

Core provides foundation tools. Console opens the agent cockpit. Mods add routing and policy enforcement inside Claude Code. Mods run with your account's permissions; review their code before installing.

Using Codex or another MCP enabled tool? Use NPX for Ruflo project setup and connect your client to the Ruflo MCP server. Run the setup wizard in your project terminal:

npx ruflo@latest init wizard

For clients that support local stdio MCP servers, configure command npx and arguments ["-y", "ruflo@latest", "mcp", "start"]. The equivalent server command is:

npx -y ruflo@latest mcp start

MCP exposes Ruflo tools to your client. The console and mods above are Claude Code integrations; hook support depends on the client.

Prefer a plain terminal? Optional. The console also runs on its own, with no Claude Code: npx ruflo tui (add --plain to print one frame for scripts). It shows Overview, Cost, Swarm, Events and Missions, plus an optional AI page. Terminal UI guide

Agent = Model + Harness. The model writes; the harness gives it tools, memory, loops, sandboxes, and controls so it can actually work. Ruflo is the harness — the execution layer around Claude Code and Codex that adds 100+ specialized agents, coordinated swarms, self-learning memory, federated comms across machines, and enterprise security guardrails. So agents don't just run, they collaborate.

One npx ruflo init gives Claude Code a nervous system: agents self-organize into swarms, learn from every task, remember across sessions, and — with federation — securely talk to agents on other machines without leaking data. You keep writing code. Ruflo handles the coordination.

Conceptual learning loop. Local vector retrieval and contrastive updates can run without an LLM; embeddings and configured learning modules are still required. See the RuVector training integration and trajectory contrastive learning.

Architecture in text

User → Ruflo (CLI/MCP) → Router → Swarm → Agents → Memory → LLM providers. Memory feeds useful experience back into routing. This is a conceptual flow, not a live execution trace.

New to Ruflo? You don't need to learn 314 MCP tools or 26 CLI commands. After init, just use Claude Code normally — the hooks system automatically routes tasks, learns from successful patterns, and coordinates agents in the background.
